The Detroit Red Wings have went 1-1 since the last stock exchange, as the winning streak finally came to an end in Wednesday’s loss to the Predators. With just two games, the sample size isn’t too big for this week’s iteration of the stock exchange, but there were still plenty of storylines to follow. Let’s

The biggest storyline in Detroit this season has been the excellent play from the rookies, but there are a couple underrated players that are contributing on the blue line. Let’s look at a few defenseman that, while not as exciting as Lucas Raymond and Moritz Seider, are important contributors in the team’s success so far.

The Detroit Red Wings lost their first in six games, but there seemed to be a bigger loss if it turns out that Moritz Seider‘s reason for leaving early is a concussion or worse. The first year defenseman took a hit into the boards and his head rattled. Seider looked dazed initially, then tried to steady himself,

It’s a lot of fun to write about the Detroit Red Wings when they’re winning and it’s been a long while since they’ve been looking to win its sixth straight. But they wouldn’t get a win tonight as the Predators kept Detroit at bay all night in a 5-2 decision. Nashville had a 2-0 lead

But the big news is Donovan Sebrango’s

Of the Detroit Red Wings defensemen, Moritz Seider has stolen a majority of the limelight (rightfully so), but Filip Hronek has quietly been one of the better defenders on the roster. Last season was a bit of a disapointment for Hronek. Just glancing at the point sheet, it seems as though it was a stellar

Don’t worry–in this version of the 8 observations of the Detroit Red Wings, I will get to Mo Seider with the last two. But here are six to start with before we get to who I believe is the MVP of this team so far. 1: The Red Wings have been looking for secondary scoring for

It’s been a tough couple of games for Detroit Red Wings forward Michael Rasmussen. If most fans had their say, they’d extend this description to most of the season. I looked at Rasmussen shift by shift and it wasn’t highlight reel stuff, but the makings of a solid, defensive forward was certainly there. But it

It was just short of two weeks ago that I wrote about how the Red Wings loss to Arizona and how they responded to it would ultimately be the first real opportunity to see who this team was. Boy, did the respond. Since losing to Arizona 2-1 which was their fourth straight loss, the Red
